Lost In Transmission by Wil McCarthyreviewed by Rich Horton
Third in a series, this is the story of a journey to Barnard's Star and the effort to colonize one of
the planets of that star. The main character is Conrad Mursk, the
First Mate of the Newhope. His lover Xiomara Li Weng, or Xmary, is the Captain.
Bascal is the leader of the expedition and will be King once the new planet is reached. Conrad himself is a rather
stolid young man, though perhaps not so stolid as he seems to think.

The Collapsium by Wil McCarthyreviewed by Rich Horton
One of the time-honoured SF themes is the exploration of what we might call
"edge science": ideas that are current in the scientific world, but far
from established, often very speculative, sometimes even close to kooky.
This novel is built wholly around such wacky scientific speculations.

The Collapsium by Wil McCarthyreviewed by Peter D. Tillman
Our hero, wealthy super-scientist Bruno de Towaji, is experimenting with collapsium, a dangerous, metastable
material made of proton-size black holes, when he receives a Royal Summons: the new near-solar collapsiter
ring is unstable, and will fall into the sun (and eat it) unless something is done...

Bloom by Wil McCarthyreviewed by Peter D. Tillman
It has been 20 years since humanity was driven from Earth and the Inner System by a runaway Bloom of mycora
that has eaten all of Earth's life, and most of its crust. Humans
have retreated to the moons of Jupiter and the asteroids where constant vigilance is required to keep the
Mycosystem at bay. The mycora are generally thought to have been created
in an industrial accident, but human malice -- or an extrasolar origin -- can't be ruled out.

Murder in the Solid State by Wil McCarthyreviewed by Greg L. Johnson
Nanotechnology in the near future forms the background for a tale of
homicide and political oppression. Research has been slowed mainly by the
achievements of one man who holds patents for the development of
microtechnology, a step on the way to real nanotech.

Bloom by Wil McCarthyreviewed by Mark Sumner
Guest Reviewer Mark Sumner thinks nothing in the SF / fantasy field stirs more excitement than the
emergence of a new, honest-to-Asimov science fiction writer who
aspires to the mantle of a Clarke, or seeks a place among the "Killer
B's." In his earlier work, Wil McCarthy hinted (strongly) that he
was a contender for the pantheon of the hardware gods. With Bloom, he assures his ascension.
